Ingredients:

  • 3 pieces of tofu
  • 1 package of instant noodles, crushed
  • 8 quail eggs
  • 5 tablespoons of Sajiku seasoned flour
  • Salt to taste
  • Pepper to taste
  • Celery leaves, finely chopped

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Quail Eggs: Begin by boiling the quail eggs until they are fully cooked. Once cooked, allow them to cool slightly before peeling off the shells. Set the peeled eggs aside.

  2. Prepare the Tofu Mixture: In a large mixing bowl, crumble the tofu until it reaches a fine, even consistency. To the crumbled tofu, add salt, pepper, finely chopped celery leaves, and Sajiku seasoned flour. Mix everything together thoroughly until well combined.

  3. Form the Tofu Balls: Take a small amount of the tofu mixture and flatten it in your hand. Place one peeled quail egg in the center of the flattened mixture and then wrap the tofu mixture around the egg, shaping it into a ball. Repeat this process until all the quail eggs are used up.

  4. Coat with Crushed Noodles: Roll each tofu ball in the crushed instant noodles, ensuring that the noodles adhere well to the surface.

  5. Fry the Tofu Balls: Heat a sufficient amount of oil in a frying pan over low heat. Carefully add the tofu balls to the hot oil and fry them until they turn a golden brown color. Be sure to cook them on low heat to prevent burning and ensure even cooking.

  6. Serve: Once the tofu balls are golden and crispy, remove them from the oil and drain on a paper towel to remove excess oil. Your Bulat Tahu Rambutan is now ready to be served. Enjoy them as a delightful snack or appetizer!
